The R.E.D. Album

(The) Game puts off retiring for another LP release. Titled the R.E.D. Album, the record is going to come out December 8th on Interscope Records. At least it was, until Game decided to push it back to 2010, which I think is a good move personally. First off, the boy is off Geffen, and back on Interscope. There isn't a Aftermath/G-Unit tag, but hey, linking back up for sure with Jimmy Iovine is always a good move right? The question is whether or not Game can do it again. He did it with the Documentary. He faltered just a little bit on Doctor's Advocate, and LAX was a banger with the exception of 2 maybe 3 tracks in total.

If there is one thing that Game has proved, is that he can make awesomely good music without the help of 50 Cent or the Good Doctor. Now the question is whether or not he's going to be able to do it again on the R.E.D. Album and better yet, how well people are going to respond to the release.

I remember seeing an interview where Game was talking about his "retirement" after L.A.X. and he was saying that he had done evreything tha the had wanted to do and had said everything that he had wanted to say. My question is, if that's true, then why another album? What's the reason for it, it doesn't make sense? That Better Days track is nice, yeah, but the Krazy record is not so much. Big Money is decent, but I don't think its first single material. Game constantly steps his bars up and steps his albums up. L.A.X. was a phenomenal album to say the least.

He took the name dropping thing to a whole new level, but made it nice with the Never Can Say Goodbye record. Letter to the King was inspiring, much more so than another "conscious record x Nas" aka Jeezy's My President. Everything about that song was good.

I want to keep this one short and sweet, considering how the others have been kind of long. I'm looking forward to The R.E.D. Album. I want to see what Game comes up with this time. From the tracks I've heard already, I'm thinking that it should be a banger of an album. He's worked with some of the best producers and he was recently quoted in an interview saying that he finally hooked up with Pharrell and that he is trying to get DJ Premier on the album, something that I think would be a dope collabo. The Cool and Dre beats will still be there and with Dre apparently back in the studio with him, I can only anticipate exceptionally good material.

Hopefully he doesn't do any random 50 Cent disses like he did on the Cool and Dre helmed Money track, the "I'm a bout a dollar, 50 Cent ain't real" line. And hopefully, he gets Young Buck on the album. Buck has been grinding for a minute and if there has been anyone that I've wanted to see win when going up against 50 Cent, it's definitely that boy from Cashville.
